Held each year at Belmont Park in New York, the Belmont Stakes has always been known as The Trial of the Champion as it is the last of the Triple Crown races and also the longest at one and a half miles in length. It’s open to horses, fillies and three-year-olds alike who want to take a chance on completing the Triple Crown (if they’ve been lucky enough to win the previous two races) or take down the leader and favorite.

In some years, the Belmont Stakes can mean the crowning of a new champion, but since there have only been twelve horses in history to take the Triple Crown, the Belmont is usually just one big race between incredible horses facing off in the Run for the Skin tones.

It’s the oldest of the Triple Crown races, with the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes being the other two, and if you don’t live in New York but want to attend, how about chartering a plane to do just that?

Chartering a jet gives you plenty of leg, shoulder, head and elbow room and allows you to get where you want to go on your schedule, not the major commercial airlines. There’s also a reduced security wait time, and you know your luggage will be with you at all times, not headed in the opposite direction.

One of the best things about a charter plane is that they can land at smaller airports while avoiding the crowds at major hubs across the country. This means you spend less time navigating the crowds and more time enjoying your ride.

So who will be the next big star to emerge from the Belmont? The fastest time in history is still held by the great Secretariat in 1973. That year he also won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes in record time, something we haven’t seen since. Secretariat also holds the record in the margin of victory category, as he won by thirty-one lengths over the rest of the field.

Who will win the next skin tone blanket? And will you have arrived to see it in style and comfort or have you battled the crowds and commercial airlines and arrived exhausted and tired? Chartering is less expensive than you think and think of all the hassle you save.
